im going parallel and removing all traces of the sequential system, i was gonna do the ray hall/cw thing but i have a thought:-

is there any reason why i cant put the exhaust housing from a spare no1 turbo onto the no2 turbo, so i can have 2 wastegates.

the problems i can see r:-

1/ no2 prespool actuator too long - use spare no1 wastegate actuator

2/ cast exhaust section wont fit - im fitting custom anyway



r no1 & no2 exhaust turbines the same?

looking at the waste gate it appears that it only lifts about 15mm, is this correct?

also,

if i have a 5cm diam exit on my turbo's exhaust side, giving an area of 19.6cmsq, and i have 2 of these pipes joining, do i want them to join into a 39.2cmsq (3" diam = 45.6cmsq) single pipe?

It is my understanding that the only difference between No1 and No2 turbo is that housing.
